About Merosure 125 mg Injection Kit

Merosure 125 mg Injection Kit is an antibiotic used to manage severe bacterial infections affecting the lungs, brain, urinary tract, skin, soft tissues, and bloodstream. It contains Meropenem, a broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic that works by destroying bacterial cell walls, effectively killing the bacteria responsible for the infection.
